Yeah it's very bad. People act as if sleep is not necessary. Those people are stupid and they die early.

And they go all "Stop complaining about insomnia, if you were tired, you wouldn't be tired every day!" Like GFY shithead it was a real problem!! So happy I can sleep enough nowadays that I know the secrets of my circadian rhythm.
Exactly! Everything in nature follows a rhythm - ebb and flow, work and rest, seasons of growth and pause. Without rest, there’s no energy to keep going. It’s essential, not optional.
Humans weren’t meant for the 24/7 ‘hive’ thrumming type life. I knew of someone who is like that and then recently ran into them after about 6months. They looked like they’d aged two years or something. I did double takes confirming when I last saw them.
Very early indeed.
Every yrar, the first Agora Market of the season, I get only 4-6 hours sleep the night or two before the event, and it destroys me. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
You can't make up for lost sleep either. A nap may slightly restore a bit of alertness, but it's still lost sleep. Sleep isn't just a time to rest, but it's the time our bodies use to repair, and missing out on those times takes years off our lives. When we're young, we're like, "Oh, I'll sleep when I'm dead lol", but once you pull a few all-nighters, the lack of sleep starts to take effect.
Completely agree. I will say though that a good 10 minute nap can work wonders when in a pinch
Ten minutes when I was 22, sure. I think once I got past the age of 50, that number increased to about 30 lol 😅
I was NEVER like that when I was younger. I wanted sleep and was deprived of it. Fuck anyone who doesn't appreciate it.
